I've covered that too. And 'Neon Lights' by Kraftwerk. In waltz time, two guitars and bass. And we tried to do Witchita Lineman, but we kind of didn't manage to pull that off. What a surprise.

My old band was going to cover Sorrow - David Bowie for a special 'unplugged' gi at Ronnie Scotts..it sounded great when we practised it with a quartet but..I don't know what happened; why we didn't do it.

My band generally has "Let The Music Play" by Billy Preston somewhere near the beginning of our set.
Last show we did TV On The Radio's "Wolf Like Me" (which is incredibly fun to play) for a friend of mine who was visiting. We also did "All Along The Watchtower" and Radiohead's "Let Down" with a friend's band.

The band I'm currently in has been playing Bowie's "Five Years."
In high school all we did was play Metallica songs, and we played them very well.
